About backups and restores with NetBackup in a cluster

This topic provides links to instructions on how to perform user-directed backups and restore data in a cluster. See the NetBackup Administrator Guides for information on performing backups and restores in non-cluster environments.

The backup and restore process is the same whether you are in a cluster or a non-cluster environment. See the NetBackup Troubleshooting Guide for further information on backup and archive processes and on restore processes.
